The CDF Silicon Vertex Tracker
Real time pattern recognition is becoming a key issue in many position sensitive detector applications. The CDF collaboration is building SVT: a specialized electronic device designed to perform real time track reconstruction using the silicon vertex detector (SVX II). This will strongly improve the CDF capability of triggering on events containing b quarks, usually characterized by the presenc...
متن کاملThe Cdf-ii Online Silicon Vertex Tracker
The Online Silicon Vertex Tracker is the new CDF-II level 2 trigger processor designed to reconstruct 2-D tracks within the Silicon Vertex Detector with high speed and accuracy. By performing a precise measurement of impact parameters the SVT allows tagging online B events which typically show displaced secondary vertices. Physics simulations show that this will greatly enhance the CDF-II B-phy...
متن کاملAging phenomena in the LHCb outer tracker
The Outer Tracker (OT) consists of 53 760 straw tubes, covering in total an area of 360m. The detector is foreseen to operate under large particle rates, up to 30kHz=cm per straw in the region closest to the beam. Extensive aging tests conducted earlier on with prototype modules indicated excellent gain stability. In contrast, mass production modules show significant degradation under a rather ...
متن کاملAgeing: Radiation Hardness of the LHCb Outer Tracker
The two parts of the title and subtitle of my thesis, namely Ageing: radiation hardness of the LHCb Outer Tracker and The decay of beauty: time-dependent CP violation using B0 s → J/ψ φ decays represent its two main subjects. In this introduction, I will first elaborate on the radiation hardness of the LHCb Outer Tracker. Next, I will discuss the subject of time-dependent CP violation in B0 s →...
متن کاملAging studies for the large honeycomb drift tube system of the Outer Tracker of HERA - B The HERA - B Outer Tracker Group
The HERA-B Outer Tracker consists of drift tubes folded from polycarbonate foil and is operated with Ar/CF4/CO2 as drift gas. The detector has to stand radiation levels which are similar to LHC conditions. The first prototypes exposed to radiation in HERA-B suffered severe radiation damage due to the development of self-sustaining currents (Malter effect). In a subsequent extended R&D program m...
